I've got rusty guitar strings from crying salty tears 

                                      G7 
And this band stand is getting pretty wet 

         C                         F            C 
I've got rusty guitar strings from crying salty tears 

                 G7             C 
And I'm not even through crying yet 





                                      F             C 
Well you always got your kicks when I played my hot licks 

                                 G7 
You said I was the light of your life 

    C                     F                   C 
But when you called today said you were going away 

                  G7               C 
That you would be another picker's wife 





C        F                         C 
I've got rusty guitar strings from crying salty tears 

                                      G7 
And this band stand is getting pretty wet 

         C                         F            C 
I've got rusty guitar strings from crying salty tears 

                 G7             C 
And I'm not even through crying yet 






                           F                C 
I was a guitar picker in a good ol' country band 

                                     G7 
And I used to sit and practice every day 

      C                         F                C 
I was headed for the top when I heard my G sting pop 

                     G7        C 
Then my fame started slipping away 





C        F                         C 
I've got rusty guitar strings from crying salty tears 

                                      G7 
And this band stand is getting pretty wet 

         C                         F            C 
I've got rusty guitar strings from crying salty tears 

                 G7             C 
And I'm not even through crying yet 





                              F                 C 
Now I'm picking sour notes on these sad songs I wrote 

                                G7 
I'm out of tune on every note I play 

      C                       F               C 
As my salty tears fall down I know I'm sorrow bound 

               G7          C 
I'm rusting my poor career away 




C        F                         C 
I've got rusty guitar strings from crying salty tears 

                                      G7 
And this band stand is getting pretty wet 

         C                         F            C 
I've got rusty guitar strings from crying salty tears 

                 G7             C 
And I'm not even through crying yet 





                 G7             C 
And I'm not even through crying yet
